Wizard detective entangled in magical Chicago noir.
"Storm Front" is a fantastic gateway into a gritty urban fantasy world where magic is real, and it's intertwined with crime. As a modern-day wizard, Harry Dresden is like a noir detective with a wand, and the novel weaves a compelling mystery with sorcerous twists. Whether you love supernatural thrills or hard-boiled investigations, Harry's world will pull you in and likely have you hungry for the rest of the Dresden Files series. The blend of dark humor, action, and the supernatural here is something not many books can match.

The book features a unique storyline with a blend of different genres, ranging from ghosts, vampires to a love story.

One of the standout features of this book is the captivating characters of Simon Snow and Baz, whose relationship development and dynamics drive the narrative forward. Overall, Carry On is a fun, entertaining and heartfelt read which will keep readers hooked until the end."
